World's most tasteless tourist attraction:
 
Side of house plastered with one million pieces of used CHEWING GUM.Containing an estimated one million pieces of chewed gum (and an unknown quantity of dried saliva) this may be the world's weirdest - and according to a recent poll the world's second most unhygienic - tourist attraction.

Landing second place in Tripadvisor's 'World's Germiest Attractions' rundown, the 50-foot long Pike Place Market wall in Seattle, USA, is covered from floor to ceiling in colourful gum.

The tacky display first took shape when theatregoers queueing for the Unexpected Productions' improv comedy show Seattle Theatresports stuck coins and other small objects to the wall using chewing gum.

I wonder what the R factor is for retaining heat and keeping the cold out. :hmmm:
